Antarctic new particle formation from continental biogenic precursors
Over Antarctica, aerosol particles originate almost entirely from marine areas, with minor contribution from long-range transported dust or anthropogenic material. The Antarctic continent itself, unlike all other continental areas, has been thought to be practically free of aerosol sources. Here we present evidence of local aerosol production associated with melt-water ponds in continental Anta...

متن کاملNew-particle formation events in a continental boundary layer: first results from the SATURN experiment
During the SATURN experiment, which took place from 27 May to 14 June 2002, new particle formation in the continental boundary layer was investigated. Simultaneous ground-based and tethered-balloon-borne measurements were performed, including meteorological parameters, particle number concentrations and size distributions, gaseous precursor concentrations and SODAR and LIDAR observations. Newly...
متن کاملReduced anthropogenic aerosol radiative forcing caused by biogenic new particle formation.
The magnitude of aerosol radiative forcing caused by anthropogenic emissions depends on the baseline state of the atmosphere under pristine preindustrial conditions. Measurements show that particle formation in atmospheric conditions can occur solely from biogenic vapors. Here, we evaluate the potential effect of this source of particles on preindustrial cloud condensation nuclei (CCN) concentr...
متن کاملSub-Antarctic marine aerosol: dominant contributions from biogenic sources
Biogenic influences on the composition and characteristics of aerosol were investigated on Bird Island (5400 S, 3803 W) in the South Atlantic during November and December 2010. This remote marine environment is characterised by large seabird and seal colonies. The chemical composition of the submicron particles, measured by an aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS), was 21 % non-sea-salt sulfate, 2 % ...
